I was wondering if this statement had any truth to it? A b18 needs cam gears when a turbo is added because of detonation issues?

NO depends on what you are using as fuel mangament, if you have uberdata, you can control the timing from there.

from my understanding the use of adjustable camgears is to tune cams, example you have a set of performance cams, you need to to tune them to the best perfomance as posible, I got a set of GSR cams that I plan to retard the intake side about 3 degrees and leave the exhaust side stock

NCHATCH

as said before, you dont tune out detonation with cam gears

i can tell you this, by altering my exhaust cam in a certain direction i was able to speed up boost by 3-400 rpms, due to exhuast flow velocity and when it left the combustion chamber/ how much left at that specific time, and more

we can all make good guesses at cam gear settings, but you should reall put it on a dyno to understand the full use

oh and you can pick up more power even with stock cams, just by degreeing them where your set up needs them
